Post subject:  Suspension allignment
My laziness is catching up with me. I need to get my suspension laser alligned before it completely ruins another pair of front tyres. I have adjustable topmounts which at some point have slipped from where they should be.

I have plenty of local garages which can do the allignment but my question is this: Will they need t know what the stock settings are for an ST205 or is that not how it works and they work it out specific to my car? Will the settings be different because of the aftermarket parts I have?

I don't want to look like a tool going in to get it done without all the relevent information so does anyone know what the stock suspension settings are for an ST205?


And while I'm at it, what is the correct torque setting for the wheels nuts?

TIA

If you have a browse around Kris and Looseys site you'll find the stock specs, can't remember precisely where it is though.

76lbft is the torque for the wheel nuts. :)

Paul I kept within the limits on the front camber.

I went for 0.8 degrees, but I think it would be better to put a little more on.

Next time I have it aligned, (after the engine swap), I will try a little more, maybe 1.5 degrees and see how that pans out?
